Tasting note

It's a happy coincidence that GSM, the grenache-syrah-mourvèdre blend, works equally well when you call syrah 'shiraz' and mourvèdre 'mataro.' 'The Strapper' is a strapping red, full of ripe fruit that's solid from attack to finish. It's full-bodied and full-flavoured, with good structure and acid-fruit balance. The texture is quite generous and fleshy, and there's a slight grittiness to the tannins, but nothing that gets in the way of the essential fruit. Drink this now and over the next two or three years - by the end of the decade, for sure. Score - 4 1/2 out of 5 Stars. (Rod Phillips, rodphillipsonwine.com, March 2016)LCBO

Cherry-red in colour, this red boasts a medium nose exuding woody, spicy, floral and fruity aromas. Discover this medium-bodied wine expressing refreshing acidity and offering a broad texture and fleshy tannins. It also unveils a medium mouthfeel that leads into a medium finish. SAQ

We are very excited to be able to make this classic Barossa style. The varieties G, S & M were created to go together, blending harmoniously in the bottle and glass. This is a wine that is layered and supple - like spiced red and black berry fruits, drizzled with chocolate. Finishing with rustic yet velvet tannins. Delicious with slow braised beef cheek or lamb shanks, garnished with crisp smoked Shultzs bacon and served with roasted root vegetables. Alcool NB Liquor

Authentic Barossa Shiraz is sandwiched between the understated fragrant perfume of Grenache and the earthy, rustic tannins of Mataro - a well-bred, strapping and savoury wine. Liquor Marts

Rich, ripe and velvety, this is dense without being heavy-handed, with cherry, blackberry, pomegranate and spice flavours that dance through the vigorous finish. Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro. Wine Spectator 91 points. BC Liquor Stores
